Trade Journal for Dummies(Before da-Bell)!
It's a Miracle, our 4cast GAP Up is playing out, Not Exactly, da-Boyz are playing LONGS for FOOLS using RIMM as the Fall-Guy, pun intended, as they sell SHORT Q shares in after hours and pre-market!! This is text-book stuff as day play da-Shorts in after and pre-market hours (the Shorts HAVE to buy or risk Margin-Calls), ONLY to end up GAP-ing down Hard in a reversal of Titanic Proportions, OUCH!
We expect the jobs number to be close to a Million jobs lost and a GAP down to fill the GAP at 30.77, Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet! I'm Not sure how many Freakin Islands we can Visit without catching sumptin and it's not going be a Fish we catch, LOL!
ObviousLee we'll be taking on CASH and Profits since dat's what we do and we do it often, LOL!! BUT, it's NOT about the Profits dis-TIME as we understand that a -4.0% down day is being planned as I write this post and we LIKE IT!!
Boyz, you are da-Best of da-Best at "Manipulating" price in such a way dat neither Bull nor Bear has a Freeakin Chance and quite Frankly, we're Impressed, LOLOLOLOL!
Our STRONG suggestion for play-ar's today, if you're NOT a seasoned veteran play-ar, then just "Step-Aside-Please" and let us "Pros" show you how to do it, for your own mental-health and your grand-childrens inheritance sake just Walk away today, yep, WALK AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boyz, forgive-em for day KNOW NOT what day do, well, 99.997% of-em dat is, LOL!
Posted last nite with the "Update" post:
Wow, can dare bee anymore Shorts left, not many for sure so we expect a ST Top to complete Friday and then down into 09Apr?
We did get the New YTD High that was needed to confirm more Up after the pull-back!
We start tomorrow with a near neutral bias and will likely play between 31.50 and 32.50?
